Asus Zenbook: UX31A or UX32A? Comments?

Looking to get a cheap ultrabook and I sort of narrowed it down to the asus zenbook after looking at most of them in-person

Right now I am kind of debating between the UX31A-DH51 and UX32A-DH51 (Both "on sale" at NCIX for $999 and $899)
ASUS Zenbook Prime UX31A-DH51 Intel Core i5 3317U 4GB 128GB SSD 13.3IN BT Widi Windows 8 Ultrabook
ASUS Zenbook UX32A-DH51 Intel Core i5 3317U 6GB 500GB 13.3IN Bluetooth Widi Windows 8 Ultrabook

For just $100 more the UX31a has a 1080p IPS screen, and a full 128GB SSD (compare to 768p and 24GB/500GB HD on the UX32a)...but my biggest gripe is that it only has 4GB memory...(The cheaper UX32a has 6GB)
Normally, upgrading notebook DDR3 is dirt cheap, but I think the zenbookk (UX31A/32A) has non-upgradable memory??

I've never used a 1080p screen...does it make a big difference. Is it worth the $100 extra and sacrificing the the lower ram??
